Bonifacio, a lovely medieval town, is the oldest town in Corsica. It hovers on the cliffs of a limestone peninsula above a natural harbour on the site of a 9th century citadel. Many of the tall sturdy houses are found along cobbled streets in a spectacular setting along the top of the cliffs.

At the southern tip of Corsica and just 12km from Italian Sardinia,  Bonifacio and its harbour have an exclusive, sophisticated Italian feel - the town is very elegant, with palm trees and expensive restaurants lining the quay.

Several renowned Mediterranean beaches are also close to hand.

There are various notable sites to be seen in the town: these include the 'Staircase of the King of Aragon' - a staircase cut into the stone to enable access to the old town above; the monument to the dead; and a sprinkling of attractive churches scattered among the medieval buildings.

The town is a major centre for water based leisure activities including yachting, windsurfing and diving.

Nearby and reached by boat trip, the Lavezzi Islands, a designated marine preserve, are just off Bonifacio.

If possible Bonifacio is best visited in May, June or September because it gets very busy (largely french and Italian tourists) during the summer peak months.
